Hi All,

We have a script which when run manually does perform the job quite
well, but when scheduled thorugh Automatic scheduler (CA - autosys),
fails. The failure is becuase of its unability to find some AIX
commands like lspv, lscfg etc.

I suspect its becuase autosys is not able to get the environment
variables. These scripts are run as root by autosys, so there should
not be any user related issues.

Any ideas ?

Ciao

Autosys's PATH not same as interactive PATH.

do a
echo $PATH
interactive and in a script and compare values.

As for other environment variables, do a
var | sort
and compare results.

We have tried putting a .profile with the PATH for the root user as
the autosys runs scripts as root.

Also, I have su'ed to the autosys user and have been manually able to
run all the commands.

Trust me, put an env statement in a script and compare
against an interactive env.

Going to bet on $PATH not the same.
